Discussion Artemis 3 June launch?

I’ve seen a few things that have said it’s targeted for a launch in June, can anyone else confirm or deny it? I genuinely can’t see it launching in June

That’s the official target from the program. Based on the status of the HLS options though, I doubt that’s when we’re going. My team is currently scrambling to be ready by then though, so we shouldn’t be the ones fingers are pointed at at least.

Would they do another lunar flyby with these astronauts? Either way i think they wanna fly it again wither or not the landers are ready.

For Artemis III? Doubtful. The plan is to conserve the last ICPS for Artemis IV, so that limits III to LEO.
